What's the point?

rloundst©©tln vs. lr.-ferriragb0ne? Ceclt L. Jerome_ The f oUowing is a conversation I had last week with Dr. Thaddius R. Brainsbristle of the Metaphysics Department of Metropolitan State C oUege. He is lodging a suit against the administration for alleged discriminatory practices. QUESTION: Dr. Brainbristle, we understand you are bringing suit against the MSC administration.Just what was it that precipitated the suit? ANSWER: Houndstooth. QUESTION: Hounds ... ANSWER: TOOTH! That is correct. They are all in houndstooth up there. I complained through the Faculty Greivance Committee, which is mostly corduroy with elbow patches. QUESTION: And what was the response from the administration? ANSWER: "Let him wear herringbone." Now, that's blatant discrimination. QUESTION: I don't see it. Surely other professors wear herringbone. ANSWER: Nope! Mostly Harris tweed with accenting trousers and. oxford cloth button down shirt. Very few herringbones. And they don't like us ..~ QUESTION: Can you prove 't hat charge? . ANSWER: But of course. How many herringbones have you seen promoted this year? Huh? One. Because it was a pendleton-cut in a woman's three piece. QUESTION: Are you saying sexism? ANSWER: I'm not saying; ask Pendleton. QUESTION: That's a very serious charge. ANSWER: Pendleton makes very

"·

serious suits. Not like your casual herringbone. QUESTION:Do you really like herring-bone? ANSWER: Only for the time being; I'm waiting for my move up. QUESTION: In the administration? ANSWER: No, no, into the real world . .. of civil service, plumbing and allmale revues. QUESTION: I don't understandwhat would that get you? ANSWER: A good union suit for starters. I'm tired of looking like a fish. Besides, this administration discriminates agaillst the short, too. QUESTION: Why would the administration discriminate against you because you are short and herringboned? ANSWER: Scares 'em to death. Soon as they feel the presence of a higher species in their midst they clam up like Nixon. They like the below-dim in their company. Makes 'em feel superior. Like they're actually earning that fat pay. QUESTION: And the short part? ANSWER: Nobody likes short people. They're hard to spot from lofty heights. QUESTION: So short people ANSWER: Skulk a lot, keep a low profile. Scares the hell out of the adminis· tration. They like 'em tall-almost eye level-in very bold wash-and-wear plaids ... sports jackets .. . no suits. QUESTION: Can you cite an example? ANSWER: But, of course. For example, Professor Charlie Clamshell was taking his anthropology class on a factfinding trip on herring migration in "the Azores and he jumped ship at Pago Pago.

QUESTION: But Pago Pago is in the Pacific and the Azores are in the Atlantic Ocean . . . ? ANSWER: Ah Hal But would they tell him? Nol Discrimination! Did I mention that Charlie was short? QUESTION: I don't quite see ... ANSWER: Also, there were two other short men on the campus at one time. One was part pit terrier and part Conowango and half Mazda. They promoted him to dean. The other poor fellow was one hundred precent (sic) American no-breed with just the slightest hint of Izuzu and he languished from terminal ill-will. One day he was run over by a dam Auraria media delivery girl who was late getting the color television to the administration building in time for the afternoon soaps. You don't call that discrimination? QUESTION: Do you have an ethnic heritage, Dr. Brainbristle? ANSWER: No, I walk to school. Daddy owned one but he was forced to sell it during the Great Depression. I remember that Heritage so well . . . we would all go in it for the Sunday drive . .. QUESTION: Perhaps you don't understand the question, just what sort of people were your ancestors? ANSWER: Oh, yes, I'm a little spitz, a

lot of consejos and half Lamborghini, but I don't want do be a dean. So what's left QUESTION: Perhaps Pago Pago? ANSW'ER: Not a bad though.t. Maybe I could lodge a nice suit against your paper before I go. What would you think of seersucker? O

The brown cloud permeating Auraria Campus buildings will soon be driven out by the campus's new smoking policy. The policy, which is in compliance to Gov. Lamm's executive order regarding smoking in state buildings, restricts smoking to designated areas. · The order reverses Auraria's previous smoking regulations that permitted smoking everywhere except in areas designated nonsmoking. And, according to Lamm's order, the objective of the smoking policy is to provide a smoke-free environment for nonsmokers. Thus, AHEC has posted "No Smoking Except in Designated Areas" signs on the entrances of classroom buildin~. And let there be no butts about it; regardless of the ashtrays lining the hallways of the buildin~, there's no smoking unless otherwise specified. Other areas designated nonsmoking include offices, departmental suites, lobbies, foyers, elevators, restrooms, shops, cafeterias, snackbars and waiting rooms. The vending lounges in the Arts, Central Classroom, West Classroom, South Classroom and the Technology Buildin~ will remain as they

See Student

Responae _Page 5 now are; first-floor lounges will remain smoking, and second-floor lounges will remain non-smoking, as determined by the Student Facilities Policy Council. The Science Building's lounge will be divided into smoking and nonsmoking areas. The cafeteria in the Student Center will also be divided into smoking and nonsmoking areas. The entire southern side of the cafeteria along the windows will be designated smoking. And the area surrounding the bar at the Mission will be nonsmoking. Metro President Paul Magelli says "serious implementation of the policy goes beyond AHEC's responsibility to various agencies." Therefore, the supervisors (i.e. deans or department heads) within each institution will monitor the policy. And as Lamm's order states, "All state employees . . . may tactfully remind the public of its application in all non-designated areas." Magelli says compliance of the policy "depends on a high level of voluntary cooperation." Neither AllEC nor the Auraria Executive Commith,'C has <.·ome up with an enforcement policy rngarding the order. O

ON CAMPUS Seed Dollars Sown in Carnival Cold

MSC Investment Buys Low Body Count Tom Smith Reporter

....

- Chalking it up to experience, Harry Gianneschi, vice president of Metro, claimed the first Carnevale was a success, despite low attendence. "We are not disappointed," he said of the smaller-than-expected number of festival goers who braved the cold weather. There was a steady flow of people throughout the day on Larimer Square, he said. He did not have an exact body count.

Gianneschi felt positive about the event. His objective of getting the community to be aware of Metro and the festival was met. Carnevale, sponsored by the MSC Public Relations Department, Larimer Square Associates and others, received a lot of press coverage from the two Denver dailies, he said. MSC Public Relations Department put up $3,400, for the Carnevale, and Larimer Square Associates put in $5,000. Metro was in charge of advertising and printing, since it ·had the

The package would be primarily for those people who come from out of town, she said. They could stay at a hotel close to Larimer Square and attend all events by walking. Interest from other groups and businesses who want to help sponsor Carnevale is already good, Gianneschi said. He said nothing is final on who will help and who won't. Next year's Carnevale will be on the same weekend, because it is a religious holiday and changing it to swiuner would not be right, he said. "We are trying to fill the gap between January and May when there is nothing going on in this town," he said. Carnevale is not only for the cultural awareness, but to showcase Metro students. He is toying with the idea of having an opera and a fashion show next year. This year the Music, Art, Speech and History departments helped out. Other than the weather, the only problem was the traffic flow down Larimer street. Blocking off Larimer Street always causes problems for motorist who don't know what's happening, Gianneschi said. Traffic was D backed up for blocks.

Forget Consistency

Robert Smith Reporter

MSC's Faculty Senate wants to know what's wrong with the current student evaluations of teachers. The senate voted Thursday to ask the administration for a clear statement of the defects of the current system. A co-sponsor of the resolution said its purpose was to "flush out" what the administration doesn't like about the current systems. "We want the administration to tell all of us in public rather than some of us in private," said Joe Morrell, professor ofcomputer and management sciences. The senate has endorsed development of new evaluations-but it is confused about what they should, or shouldn't do. Consistency is at the heart of the confusion. The original resolution described evaluations that are "fair, objective and consistent across the college." It was amended to include "distinctive

Student Evaluations of Teachers Should be Objective, but Different This is too dangerous to leave in the hands of administrators. Joe Morrell and necessary differences" between academic disciplines. English Professor Charles Allbee, who included inthe 1006-8'7budgetrequestnew language reflects descriptions in the current faculty handbook. Morrell had a different view. "It's a fail-safe to prevent uniformity," he said. After passing the amended resolution, the senate turned to the enrollment cap. It wants a bigger role on the Enrollment Management Task Force-the group that decides how to met:t the cap.

The members were worried about the effect of administration decisions on the academic quality of the college. "This is too dangerous to leave in the hands of administrators," Morrell said. The closing of classes and the use of the wait list were cited as policies that caused "utter chaos" this semester. Members said these policies resulted in classes that were too full for effective teaching, or too empty for effective use of resources. The resources presented to the senate called for the addition of two faculty members to the. task force. It was

amended to read "adequate representation" when none of the senators knew how big the task force is, or who is on it. Only one faculty member, Senate President Freida Holley, is currently on the task force. Other items discussed at the meeting included: •Part-time parking permits: the prepaid, $13.50 per month permits arc for lot K only. • Pay increases for part -time teachers: $25 per credit hour increase is included in the 1986-87 hudgct rnq uestit is ninth on the priority list. • Library resources: senators W(:r<: asked to survey their students to see if the situation described in an article in the last i<>sue of The ~etropolitan is wide-spread.

Directors Team Up to Meet Ca'mpus Health Care_Needs

Billie Mavromatis and Marilyn Helberg Deanne Allen Reporter

The new student health center co• directors are committed to bringing students affordable, quality health care "There are many students who couldn't make it without us," said Billie Mavromatis. "Or this facility," added Marilyn Helberg. · Mavromatis and Helberg were appointed co-directors of the clinic. "The division of duties has been

pretty equitable so far," said Mavromatis, "because we have medical personnel who Marilyn supervises, trains and provides for; and then we have the support staff and allied health services which is what I do. So it is actually a very logical and effective way to run a clinic." "Well, at least we are finding out that it is," said Helberg. Before accepting their current positions, Mavromatis was the staff assistant director in charge of the student health

r

I

insuram.'e program, and I lelberg served as a nurse-practitioner in the clink for more than 10 years. "We have seen many changes in the past 10 years," Helberg said. "One of the biggest is, of course, when l started, we were still a disjointed campus, which kept us from participating in campus-wide activities. Since we moved to the Auraria campus, we have become more visible through programs like our health education tables and outreach programs like the AIDS program that is coming on Feb. 27. Really being visible on campus has been a big area of growth for us." Since Helberg joined the staff, the number of nurse-practitioners has grown from two to four and they have added the services of a doctor three days each week. "We average seeing over 50 students a day," said Mavromatis. "These students are coming in and having their student health insurance processed as well as using clinic facilities. So we are a resource for both on campus." One point which Mavromatis and Helberg emphasized is that student health insurance is for full-time students, while the clinic is available to any student who attend Metro regardless of his number of credit hours. "While we are a student-fee funded organization of Metro, we do see students from the other schools on a pay per visit or per semester basis," said Mavromatis. "What we provide here in the clinic is a marvelous, very, very low-cost way to receive quality healthcare on campus. And, it is convenient to the students' lifestyles," said Helberg. As a student-fee funded organization, the clinic budget is approved by the

Student Affairs Board. "Our operating expenses are predominately personnel, because we try to have the highest quality personnel we can," Helberg said. "We are also the only ones who pay salaries out of student fees and that is a confusing issue sometimes," Mavromatis said. "A medical facilty is unique, it is a service oriented facility; it is very hard to compare us to any other group on campus. And it is sometimes difficult to get that across to the Student Affairs Board, in a manner where it makes good sense to them. "When you are talking about a clinic there are certain areas where you cannot cut costs. There are specific standards that we must meet as requred by law. We have found that is an ongoing education process. "We would like for all of the students on the Student Affairs Board to come in and use us to see all of the good work that we do. Oftentimes I think that some of our frustration is based·on the fact that they don't use us and they don't know what we are doing." Mavromatis and Helberg have some specific goals for the future. "I would like to see us be able to have a doctor on a full-time basis," Helberg said, "but, of course, that again comes down to budget and the decisions of the Student Affairs Board. "One of the programs that I am proudest of and would like to make sure continues is our student advocate programs," said Mavromatis. "We currently have three students who help with our education tables around campus and tackle a variety of student problems for us. They are a valuable and worthy resource." D

OPINION Go Smokeless, Suck on a Nicotine Tube Favor? Go find a hollow plastic tube with a nicotine plu~ in one end and someone's mouth on the other, and nm'll start to understand how the \\"est was won. · The same folks who sold us the notion that tohac:c:o means adventure ar~ now telling us you don't need tobacco in order to smoke. Don't eYen need smoke to smoke. Reality gone a'\.vry is what we're obserYin~. If we accept the idea that these things are cigarettes, what will they sell us next? How about an optional smoke pellet for those moments when you really need to smoke? Seriously, these things possess virtue. :'\o question about that. There is justice in the fact that smokers are not allowed tb share their pleasure with others. It's a totally personal, you smoke, you choke type experience - a revolutionary concept, for sure. And timing? The weight of public opinion is certainly in favor of this product. Some smokers may willingly purchase it. The rest will no doubt, be coerced. Now that we've admitted they are a great thing, let's not jump on the bandwagon half blind. What of the unforeseen risks? Let us ponder various scenarios for the

unsupervised consumption of nicotine tubes. Partying down, midnight, two sheets in the wind and somebody does it. Can't see straight. Thinks it's a ~farlboro. A flick of the Bic, and he really gets a mouthful.

This section weekly will be dedicated to inform you of news and happenings within our Metro State Government Branch. Things to keep your eye here for are: events to be coming, what the different branches are doing, information of the assorted functional committees, discussions of issues that could change history, and many other happenings that concern you, the student. Being a student here myself, the largest complaint that is continually heard is that the students are not happy with the leadership provided on this campus. Though we cannot select our college administration, cannot give our votes to the Colorado Trustee Board or the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, there are two governing bodies where you can be selective of your college leadership. The State's House of Representatives and Senate, and our own student body government. When you feel that perhaps our state legislature has forgotten who they are to represent, write a letter or call their offices to remind them, after all, we're the reason they are who they are today. The same deals with Metro Student Government, though no need to be so formal. Simple (sic) come by, on up to Room 340 in the Student Center, or phone us at 556-3253. The members of student gov~mment are like you, students and need to hear what your specific personal needs are, so stop by! As with state legislature, certain members of the student organization' are delegated by your votes. Each April in the last two weeks, elections are held for the offices of President, Vice President and Senator members. So, instead of feeling that again you've not been heard, take an active part to put your students into action for you. Responsibly, select people who will meet your needs as student leadership. Vote to see your college ran the way you'd like to see it ran. Support candidates who are concerned for your issues, what ever they may be! Support candidates who can implement programs of use to you, no matter what your interests I Support candidates who can govern your financial aspects to the fullest of student uses I Lastly, support candidates who can be supportive of you, ' the student! Let us all, as students and individuals, take a look at our college, and at ourselves, and see what our needs are as a whole. The best way to be satisfied with the leadership provided at this college, is to take a good hard searching look at the upcoming candidates this spring and vote for the students who can make us all happy! Holly Longenecker MSC Judicial Board Member

Editors note: The Metropolitan offers space on editorial pages-when . available-to student government to express its opinions. We don't edit their 1 copy. We feel this presents a more accurate portrayal of our leaders.

Chuck Boone worked as an engim•ering manager in a plastics company until diabetes robbed him of his sight. '.\ow, in spite of the physical disabilities and emotional frustrations that !ife has dealt him and his family, Boone is training for a new career as a computer programmer in a unique college program. He and 16 other students study daily in the Community College of Denver's Computer Training for the Handicapped program on the Auraria campus. Initiated by IBM, Denver's program is one of 32 across the country intended to prepare qualified handicapped inc,lividuals to become entry-level computer programmers. The program is taught in a casual atmosphere, Room 142 in the South Classroom. The air crackles with laughter and loud voices engaged in good-natured bantering over whether or not there truly is a God. An agnostic, a Catholic and a Baptist calm their discussion, switching to tamer talk of job assignments and hoped-for internships. The students taking an afternoon break are gathered around a table littered with orange peelings, an empty Coke can, torn scraps of a McDonald's bag, crumpled paper napkins and a computer printout. Boots, backpacks, gloves and coats are piled on the floor beneath the table. Beside them lies a cane. Against the table edge leans a pair of arm braces, their worn rubber caps resting on the carpeting. A melting piece of winter slush loses its hold and slides down the metal shaft of one of' the braces, dripping onto the rug. In another part of the room, students and their aides work at four computer terminals lined against the wall. Some

olunteer business advisers provide CCD's Computer Training for the Handicapped program its direction and practicality, as well as its conduit for job placements. The 20 volunteers who make up the program's Business Advisory Council r~present IBM, Martin Marietta. Manville and other major local employers. Together, they design the program, supporting it with their ideas, experience, contacts and company resources. The council selects students, establishes curriculum and locates internships and jobs for students. Council members also evaluate the handicapped students' progress and monitor the program's effectiveness at monthly meetings on campus. "111 tell you right up front," says Glen Crofford, a Martin Marietta Data Systems manager who bas served on the council since May. "This program is tough.

"We put them through the whole nine yards," he says, referring to the. 11-month program that begins with, introductory computer, business and accounting courses; progresses through COBOL, JCL and systems analysis and design; and ends with a mandatory internship. Students earn 45 credit hours by the end of the program. "We're not talking about a hypothetical course.'' Crofford says. "The businessmen say, 'You need this to su~ceed in the business world.' Probably that's why it's more difficult than a regular course." Program Director Lil Hunsaker, who also directs CCD's Educational Planning and Advising Center for the Physically Disadvantaged, credits the business council with the program's effectiveness. "It's really good," says Hunsaker. "Our students have so much more con· tact with business people than most other graduates.~ a

Dance Pieces Bloom and Stretch

Stop a moment and try to imagine five humans all encased and connected to one another in·white cloth. The five lunge and sway, their movements at times are choppy. At other times they're smooth. If you can imagine such a form then you have an idea of what a living sculpture is. Last weekend, ~s part of MSC's student director series, two performance art pieces, "Living Sculpture" and "Metamorphosis to a Butterfly" were presented. Heidi Peterson, director and creator of the two performance art pieces, talked about her work. "I consider myself an inventor-I come up with . ideas and it's a challenge for me to

make them come alin•. .. I am takin~ dance and theater and using that as a medium of t'xpn>.~sion of fine art." Peterson said. Peterson's combination of the two created a new way of lookin~ at and thinking about music, art and theakr. The sho\\' hegan with "\ktamorphosis to a Butterfly." a slide presentation featuring Kim Luchau. Luchau uses dance movements to convev the idea of a butterfly emerging fro;.n its cocoon. She is shown encased in a bag, looking somewhat like a loosely wrapped mummy. She eventually breaks free, ultimately blossoming into a butterfly with .orange and black wings. Luchau's dramatic interpretation of the act of nature makes one forget she is human. In the final slides one can imagine Luchau fliting away and lighting on a flower petal. "Living Sculpture" is performed on a black stage in which white elastic strips are taped to beams above and then anchored to the floor making for a diagonal and horizontal background. The piece begins with five women: Jill McDaniel, Michele Stevens, Kim Luchau, Melissa Castor and Kat Reeves.

They are dressed in what looks like a white parachute. They slip onto the stage, their heads also sheathed in white, which makes them look like apparitions from another world. The dancers-the living sculpturestay connected throughout the piece, at times moving in harmony and other times in staggered motions. One could compare the piece to a mound of clay being transformed into

a c:oherent and formed piece of pottery. The dancers' movements represent the molding and shaping. At the climatic point, the tempo increases and the dancers move in a frenzy about the stage. The elastic strips become part of the show as the living sculpture grasps and pulls upon them. It is as if the sculptor molding them came to a point of frustration and is pulling and tossing the clay about. The piece ends with the sculptor and the danced who are the sculpture moving in harmony. The synthesized music, created by students Bibi McGill, Jim Soll and Bob Schlesinger, adds a high-tech quality to the production and an eerie undertone. Student director Peterson said she hopes people, after seeing the show, will "realize the unifying factor of art, theater, and music." She feels that the concept of combining the three art forms is not seen much in the Denver area. And, talking about the Auraria campus, Peterson believes there is a wealth of potential for similiar pieces to be done. "They're all sitting in the same building (arts, music, theater). They should get together-there's a lot to offer." Her concepts and ideas may not be for everyone, but one leaves the theater feeling as if they experienced someD thing out of the ordinary.

Iden ti ties Falter on Second Stage Nancy Jarrell Reporter

.r

Some playwrights use eloquent language and tragic events to demonstrate man's frailty, some use comedy; Bertolt Brecht uses both. This is the special charm of a Brecht play. UCD's Second Stage Theatre Company discovered the charm Thursday night, February 6, when they opened Brecht's play "A Man's A Man," directed by Michael Pinney. Through a lybrinth of plot Brecht brings to his audience many of the characters familiar to comedy: drunken soldiers, prostitutes, a cynical and gi;eedy priest, and a hen-pecked husband and his nagging wife. Brecht uses comedy to present us with a serious question. Is any man an individual, unique among men? Or is

authority and bent on discipline. But rain changes the man's character. Much of the play's action takes place in the Widow Begbick's drinking establishment where the "widow" (Johnni Vetter)_ and her daughters (Sydney Achinson and Wendy Lement) work, supplying all the soldier's needs. In the early scenes Bloody Five is disapproving of the establishment. But rain has an aphrodisiac affect on him, and when a lengthy rainstorm hits, he's

transformed into a satyr among the "maidens." Griffith overdoes the change in character. Bloody Five is believable as a stuffed shirt, but when the rainstorm hits, the character looses any. semb·1ance of subtlety, lurching after the various Begbicks. Only Galy Gay and Bloody Five deal with questions of identity or morality. For the rest of the cast, their characters are pragmatists. They do

what profits them at the moment and give little· thought to any but the immediate consequences. They gallop, cavort, dance and sing through the production (and they do good job of it), bringing an ironic touch to Brecht's cynical view of life. The play is fun and it's entertaining. "A Man's A Man"' plays through February 22, at 8:30 p.m. in room 278 of the Arts Building. For more informaO tion call 751-5210~

he just any man, interchangeable, as the title suggests? The characters around whom the play· revolves make poor decisions. ,_ Just as inevitably as Shakespeare's Hamlet moves toward his death, Brecht's characters move to the tragic consequences of their acts. Brecht holds up no ideal, no standard of behavior or belief that would make the world or one's own life better. Two characters are caught in the problem of their identity. Galy Gay (Gerry Hendy) is so unsure of himself that he can literally be talked out of his own life and name. Bloody Five (David '" Griffith) clings so tightly to his image of himself that he cannot tolerate any variation from the image. Hendy carries the comic and tragic elements of his part well. At the beginning of the play he portrays the naive .,.. Galy Gay, pulling his elastic features into a wide variety of expressions as he hesitates, ponders and considers his options. Later he begins a subtle change in personality, a change to a more decisive but less likeable character. Griffith's character, Bloody Five, also goes through a personality change, but it is not as well handled. When Bloody Five is introduced to the audience, he's a spit-and-polish seargent, impressed with his own

MSC Can't Handle Patience or Ball on Road Joseph Rou Reporter

Metro's men's basketball team failed to break down the patient Denver University offense during a 62-50 loss last Wednesday night. Metro opened the game with three quick buckets before DU settled into a passing game that netted numerous close-range baskets, and gave the Pioneers a 15-8 lead. The Roadrunners then began running the fast-break, outscoring DU 102. Freddie Burgess started the scoring with a tip-in, followed by Rich Grosz's two layups. Thomas Murphy added four points that gave Metro an 18-17 lead. DP applied a full-court man-to-man press that slowed Metro down, but the Roadrunners finished the half with Ambrose Slaughter's slamdunk for a 29-25 lead. Metro's offense was denied the fastbreak in the second half because of the Pioneer's methodical ball control. At the outset of the second half DU guard Pete Faller sank three long jumpers that forced Metro to defend the perimeter. In turn, DU bullied inside for easy layups.

"The thing that sticks in my mind is the inability to hit from the outside," Hull said. He mentioned Steve :\ash shooting an uncharacteristic 0-9 from the field as part of the bad shooting night. "To beat a zone you need a couple of guys hitting from the outside," Hull . said. As time ran out, the Roadrunners, trailing 48-39, were forced to foul in an effort to stop the clock. "\\" e out-bounded them, we just couldn't hit (our shots)," he said. "It boiled down to shooting." The loss dropped Metro's record to 10-9, as the team began a two game D roadtrip last Friday.

The ~ISC men's basketball team out-rebounded, out-hustled and outdefensed its two \\'a'ihington opponents last weekend but came away with two losses to show for it. Saturday night the Roadrunners were dropped by Puget Sound 54-46 and Monday night fell to Seattle Pacific 6759. Head Coach Bob Hull blamed two old nemeses in the defense-turnovers and poise. "When you hold a team to 54 points and out-rebound them you shouldn't lose," he said, looking back on Saturday's loss. The Roadrunners muscled their way inside for a 37-20 rebounding edge and pulled to within two points late in the game, but fell prey to turnovers. "It's discouraging to work so hard and not take advantage of (the other team's mistakes)," Hull said. Hull said the teams defense has been good and the effort adequate, but couldn't stress how much the ballhandling is getting them into trouble. "WP don't have the poise and the presence of mind. I'm upset that we're not improving on our ballhandling."

Bad Luck 'Rains' on Women in Loss Rob Ritter Reporter

A poor shooting night hurt the MSC women's basketball team, but the last of 33 turnovers ended its chance for victory last Saturday against Chadron (Neb.) St.

MSC lost 82-78 in double overtime. With less than 30 seconds left in the second overtime and down by two points, the Roadrunners had the ball and a chance to tie. But when they committed their last turnover, . they also threw away any chance for prolonging the game another five minutes.

Coach Cindy Cuthals said besides her team's 35 percent shooting and the 33 turnovers, the loss of Lisa Rains to fouls was also critical. "When Lisa fouled out before regulation time ended, it meant we didn't have any outside shooters for the rest of the game," Cuthals said. Cuthals and Rains also received technical fouls when they protested the officiating, but Cuthals said that didn't affect the game. What did, was the way the Chadron defense concentrated on Rains and Heidi Keyes. "They really keyed on Heidi and Lisa all game because they're the two who hurt them the most the last time we played (an MSC win at Auraria)," Cuthals said. Even though they were the subject of Cbadron's defensive pressure, Rains and Keyes each scored 21 points. Debbie Nicholson had 17 points and Cathy Klazura added 11 for the Roadrunners. The loss dropped the women's overall record to 7-16. Their conference record is 2-9 with three left.

Heidi Keyes (52) flies high for a jump ball against AFA, last week.

It will be a busy weekend for the team as it travels first to Creeley for a Friday afternoon game against the University of Northern Colorado. Then, it will leave for Gunnison for a Saturday night game versus Western State College. o

In the game, Metro was outshot in the first half 60 to 40 percent, but reversed it in the second half and outshot Puget Sound 50 to 35 percent." But, Hull said, they didn't shoot the ball well when they needed to. "Tom (Murphy) played real well," Hull said, referring to the junior guard's 14 points and seven rebounds. "But down the stretch our guards didn't ~ play well. We were in a position to catch them but didn't have the poise." Rich Grosz kept the Roadrunners close with 10 points and six rebounds and Ambrose Slaughter collected nine points and seven rebounds in what Hull said was one of his better games .. Against Pacific Monday night, MSC again couldn't collect itself when it needed to. "They (Pacific) worked very hard to get their baskets, but again we had 20 turnovers. A lot of them were unforced," Hull said. ~ After the game, Hull said Slaughter turned in his top performance of the year with 16 points and six boards. "Ambrose had a really good trip," he said. "He's playing like a senior. He really got after it. He showed fire and is playing real well." Grosz aided Metro with 15 points while hauling down 11 rebounds. Murphy chipped in with 11 points, but it wasn't enough to overcome Tony Brown (Pacific's 67" center) and the officiating, Hull said. ·• Brown poured in 20 points and had nine rebounds to snuff out any hopes the Roadrunners had of a comeback. "He did a good job. He played well inside and took the ball to the basket," Hull said. Another obstacle in the contest, Hull said, was the officiating. He said the foul situation was not very even.

When Heidi Keyes was a seventhgrader at Nederland Junior-Senior High School, her best friend asked her to try out for the basketball team. Until then, Keyes had no interest in - the game. "If anybody else would have asked me to play, I wouldn't have," Keyes said. The Metro State College women's basketball team thanks KeyeS' friend. A 6-3 sophomore, Keyes adds a new ., dimension, offensively and defensively, to this year's team-an inside threat. Basketball critics say that 75 percent of

Heidi Keyes

c

the game is played within five to 10 feet of the basket, and Keyes' dominant play inside supports that theory. She leads the Continental Divide Conference in rebounding with 13.2 per game and averages 15.9 points a contest. She's also the top shot-blocker in the conference with just under three rejections a game. Impressive? Yes. Uncommon? Hardly. The 1983 Nederland graduate left some large imprints in the Colorado Division AI-77-230 students-high school basketball record books. Keyes set a school record her senior year by averaging 24.6 points, 21.4 rebounds and seven blocked shots per game.

"Nobody had ever seen anything like that before," Keyes said, in reference to the small community and student body-24 in her graduating class-of Nederland. She guided her team to the state tournament that year where, once again, she rewrote the record books. In the double-elimination tournament, the team lost 66-40 in its first gameand Keyes scored 35 of those 40 and tied a state tournament record with 27 · rebounds. But that was just the beginning. In the next game, an overtime victory, Keyes scored 34 points and snagged an unheard of 35 rebounds to break the record she tied in the previous game. In the third and final game of the tournament, she was limited to 'only' 18 point and 19 rebounds. These numbers added up to three Division AI state tournament records set by Keyes: single-game rebounds35; three-game rebounds-81, and three-game points-'87. she was also selected for the All-State Division Al team and and All-Boulder team. College ball hasn't slowed Keyes down a single step. In 18 games this season, the University of Nebraska transfer has been in double figures 15 times in rebounding and scoring, and was also named conference co-player-· of-the-week once this year. "Believe.me," Keyes said, "when my best friend talked me into playing basketball, I never thought it would go this far." · The 20-year-old ("21 in 35 days" she reminded me) Criminal Justice major plans to graduate in 1988 and then "get a job on a {police) force somewhere as soon as possible," she said. That has been Keyes' career goal since she was four years old, but her dream is to fly a searchlight helicopter for the police. "That is kind of a long-range dream,'' she said. ''I've wanted to fly for quite a long time." In the meantime, Keyes' basketball statistics continue to soar sky-high for D the MSC Roadrunners.

It held on to beat Breckenridge Blue Goose 4-0 to win the championship. To score in rugby, a player on an attacking team crosses a "goal" line and touches the ball down to the ground. That is called a "try" and is worth four points. Junior Kyle Howlin had five tries to

lead the team, followed by sophomore Bill Steinmeyer with three. Brian Bathe had six assists. The club's next game is at Fort Carson against Ironhorse on Saturday, March8.

Regis upended the Roadrunners in the first meeting by a single point in an overtime game. The contest, which is away, will begin at 7:30p.m. Metro will play its final home game Feb. 25 at the Auditorium Arena vs. Denver University. ·o
